lol crazy!

I've gone above 10°C 9 times since that date.

Good Evening all,

 

 

Its feeling positively tropical outside at the moment despite the dampness and wind.

[offerman]

Morning All,

Looking very marginal again for any snow here over the weekend . 

[ARTDEMOLE]

Windy night. Breezy now. 10.1c Humidity 94% Rh.

[Dorsetbred]

Morning All, a classic January Morning, or is it Classic November, oh who knows these days...anyway wet and blustery, with temperatures almost straight lined through the night with a low of 9.6°C at: 07:04 reaching the high of 9.8°C  currently..RH94 % wind gusting 35mph from the SW..

It good to see consistency in the MOD forum today as everybody grabs a chart @240hrs, as is so often the case it never materialises, finally people are beginning to consider this is yet another year full of missed promises...me I'll take the occasional storm along with some nice misty/frosty mornings..certainly looks wet in the next few hours

I completely agree close but no cigar for this year just a few weeks of cold greyness.

All going off next door...

[matt111]

Dull, wet and increasingly windy. 9.4°C

[ARTDEMOLE]

Blustery with more wind than rain. 9.8c Humidity 95%rh.

[MP-R]

Damp and breezy but the temperature is actually going down after a high of 11C overnight.

[Mapantz]

10.2°C damp and windy.

I'm not sure why there's a yellow warning out for here?  There's likely to have been more rain in the period leading up to the warning, than there will be during it. It's hardly been that wet either, just bits & pieces here and there.

Wind strength is less than yesterday, nowhere near the forecast speeds.

Great looking squall line sweeping across this evening, currently lined up from Buckfastleigh-Cardiff.

10 - 4 Rubber Duck...

Looks like we've got ourselves a squall line.

 

[Frosty hollows]

Increasingly wet and windy as the evening goes on. Plant tubs blowing about!

Absolutely wild at the moment, also accompanied by a serious temperature gradient. Very impressive. 

[MP-R]

Torrential gusty rain here and still 9.4C but falling as sleet not far west. That temp is going to nosedive soon!

[Leon1]

Looks like some very heavy rain coming in soon.

[Wiltshireweatherwatcher]

Absolutely horrendous conditions out there right now. Wouldn’t be surprised if we see reports of flash flooding in parts of the region.

[Leon1]

Torrential rain here now.

[Mark Parsons]

Is there anyone in mid Devon that is having wintery stuff?

[Andy Bown]

Immense 5 minutes and dare I say potentially tornadic, the wind switched right round* as the worst rain passed over then switched back again.

*There was a sudden burst of rain and wind onto the previously dry front windows.

[bellanite]

Absolutely hammering it down. Had 28.3mm since midnight really gusty too.

Temp has plummeted in the last 30min. Was 9.6 at 9.30 now 4.9°C

[matt111]

After a windy day with light rain on and off it's suddenly become very windy with heavy rain. Still 9.7°C at the moment
